The Goodbye Storm

Free eBook

Synopsis

Autumn Chase is painfully aware grief is a beast that won’t be chased off before it’s ready to leave. When an icy road and a dark night leave her a young widow, she’s forced to trade in her perfectly planned future for the unknown. Like a child hiding from a monster, she pulls her covers up over her head with the intention of sheltering herself forever. But once an unexpected stranger shows up on her doorstep, Autumn has to choose between being alone or connecting with someone who is hurting as badly as she is.

Noah Key, an emergency room doctor, has solemnly informed countless families that their loved one could not be saved. However, when his own wife dies suddenly there are no words to bring him comfort. His in-laws want him to fall to pieces to confirm his love for his late wife. His colleagues want him to take time off to grieve. The only thing Noah wants is to work enough hours in the day to forget his wife is gone. He’s written himself a prescription for a cocktail of distraction and exhaustion in order to trick his brain into thinking his life isn’t in shambles.

When the world keeps moving on without them, Noah and Autumn will need to decide if they’ll survive the storm or allow themselves to be swept away by it.

Beautifully written, a MUST read.

I loved this book.. The feelings of heartbreak, despair, joy and thoughtfulness are so well written, you feel as if you are experiencing each one as it is happening. I received this book for free but will definitely be buying the next one..

Not Bad

A rather depressing story. Guess life is not all sunshine and roses! However, it ended on a positive note so all not a waste of time reading it. Definitely, not my favourite book.

Long

A bit long and tedious. By the end I was glad to put this book down. I kept hoping it would get more interesting but I hoped in vain.

The Goodbye Storm

This is a hard book to read because it is so real and mostly sad but that is the way of grief. Lots of sadness with glimpses of sunlight coming through. Making friends when the ones you had have fallen away because your grief is too much for them to bare is very hard. This story shows that the road to recovery from grief is hard and complicated but the end of the journey is there if you choose to keep plodding down the road. While I picked up the book because I usually enjoy the author work I almost stopped reading it because it made me sad but I kept reading it and I am glad I did. The characters are so very real and I could relate very well to the story.
